Slow medium for connecting to the Internet, which some people STILL use because:
1. They can't afford broadband (understandable, unlike the following)
2. They don't know about other ways to connect
3. They've been brainwashed into thinking AOL is number one

an internet connection that doesnt allow the people using it to talk on the phone at the same time, if you call someones house while their on dial-up internet you will recieve a sound so horrid that it will make your ears bleed.
it sounds like a robot being tortured.
Online Conversation:
Pete- Sup dawg?
MikeG- my fucking ears are bleeding!
Pete- Yo dawg that sucks, why they bleedin?
MikeG- because i just tryed to call your house but your pov ass family has dial-up!

A horrible, extremely slow internet connection. With dial up your phone and computer use the same line.
Dial-Up:
Susie- I tried to call you but the line was busy!
Jane- Sorry, I was on the computer.
Susie- o_O

1)a shitty temporary connection using a phone line that runs at 56 or god forbid 28 k
2)in gaming terms, a bad internet or server connnection in general
1)i hate how checking my email takes a week. thanks a lot dial up
2)oh god, steve's dial up is acting up again. no wonder why i'm morphing around the level and not hitting a fucking thing.
